Verifying Software
Versions
This section describes how to verify the software versions of individual
components and entire releases.
Verifying Component Software Versions
To verify what the component software versions are:
1 Log onto the VCX system as root .
2 Navigate to /opt/3com/VCX/scripts .
3 Enter this command:
./vcx-assemble --validate
This lists all of the components and their software versions that comprise
the current running assembly.
Verifying Release Software Version
To verify what the running release software version is:
1 Log onto the VCX system as root .
2 Enter the following commands:
cd /opt/3com
ls -l
This command returns a list all of the installed releases and indicates the
running VCX version. The running VCX version is preceded by a symbolic
link icon (
->
).
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Jan 13 09:13 VCX -> /opt/3com/VCX.7.0.1c
drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 Jan 10 07:13 VCX.7.0.0c
In this example, the link points to version 7.0.1c. The other listed release,
7.0.0c, is installed, but not running.
For VCX systems running version 7.0 or higher, you can log in as root and
enter the following command:

This command returns a list all of the installed releases and indicates the
running VCX version.
